Chapter 193 Introduce you to someone (1/2)

———

The wind blew as the ocean sang it's song from the distance. The tall grass and trees that surround the mountain danced along the wind.

On top of the mountain cliff were two figures. A man stood a two feet away from the woman sitting down. He stare at the beautiful woman like he had finally found his lost love.

”Tian, what are you doing here?”

Yue Ling asks as she stands up. Her mind wondered why Lu Tian is in City Z and how he was able to get here. Only she and the others know about this place.

”Tian—”

Just when she stood, Lu Tian's arms wrap around her. He embraced her tightly as if wanting to knead her with his body.

”Tian?”

She frowns in confusion. Why did he make it seem like she had left him? As if she was going to disappear.

”It's cold here. Why are you you here?”

Lu Tian whispers near her ear, making her cheeks flush red. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she wrap her arms around his waist. Being in his arms and hearing his voice, she felt every emotion she just experienced disappear.

He made her feel safe.

”Tian....”

She tries to speak, but the more she tried, the tighter he embraced her. She could hear their heartbeat beating as one making her smile.

”Let me hug you for a bit.”

Lu Tian spoke in an almost whisper. He didn't know whether it was the fact that he didn't get to see her in the morning or the fact that she looked like someone who had given up all hope on life.

One thing he knows, is that he wants to be her strength and her safe haven.

Yue Ling sighed and allowed the man to hug her. She too, wanted to hug him.

——————-

Lu Tian's 'a bit' turned to a 'long bit' hug. As much as he didn't want to, he reluctantly let her go. However, their distance was still close. His arm still wrap around her as he looked down at his wife and seeing her red eyes, he frown.

”Why were crying?”

He asks as his hand caress her cheek and then to her swollen eyes. Feeling that tinge of tightness in his heart again, he press his forehead to hers.

”Don't ever cry alone. If you need a shoulder to lean on, I will lend you mine. If you need someone to listen to you, I will give you my ears. If you need strength....”

He pause in his words and kiss his wife on the forehead. He then press his forehead against hers again.

”I will be your strength.”

Hearing this, Yue Ling's entire being softened. She stare into the man's deep dark eyes and she could see the promise in his words. Her lip curl into a faint smile and she turn her head to the side.

”Tian, I want to introduce you to someone. This is Lee Shin.”

She spoke as she looks down at the white tombstone. Pulling away from Lu Tian, she walks up to the grave. Her eyes did not leave the man's photo as she spoke her next words.

”He was my fiancé and the man I loved....”

Her last words fell and the wind blew through them. Yue Ling turn to look at Lu Tian as her hair follow the direction of the wind.

Lu Tian felt his heart tighten again. No words could describe the way he is feeling. He stare at the beautiful woman in front of him, then to the man in the photo.

His wife was once in love...

He was not the first man she ever loved...

He.....

Yue Ling looks at Lu Tian and she could guess what was on the man's mind. Only in front of her, would she get to see his cold and aloof mask removed. Turning to look at Shin, she smiles.
